bsetroot - blackbox utility to change root window appearance

Author

       Bsetroot was written and maintained by Brad Hughes (blackbox@alug.org) and Jeff Raven (jraven@psu.edu).

Description

       Bsetroot  is a utility that can control the appearance of the root window in three ways: Either give it a
       solid color, or write a two color modula pattern to it, or  render  a  gradient  texture,  based  on  two
       different colors.

       Bsetroot  resembles  xsetroot(1)  in  this  functionality  but  it supports multiple screen displays, and
       gradient textures the same way as Blackbox does.  It doesn't handle cursors etc.  Bsetroot is part of the
       Blackbox package.
